For many years, political science has been concerned with theory of politics, political systems along with political behavioral. Mostly, political scientist engaged into the aspect of revealing the underlying political events as well as conditions. From this revelation, they attempt to predict the general principles on the political in the entire world (Grant 3). Political science is a broad field that relate with religion, racism, feminism, behavioral structuralism, institutionalism and rational choice theory. Political science is marked with a greater concern of modernity. With this regard, there have been new political situations for the past two months in the United States. Despite the fact, Barrack Obama was not entirely expected; changes have occurred so stunning that many find hard to believe. In this regard, this paper examines Political situation in the US in relation to region, racism and feminism in the last two months ago.
Political situation in the US in religion
Recently, there has been political violence regarding Muslim and Christianity religion. Actually, The United State is a Christian country. Much has been said regarding Muslim religion to the extent Muslim religion being connected to Osama Bin Laden. Reports indicate that, actions have been taken regarding first ever arrest warrant of Osama Bin Laden (Grant 10). ….argue that, it is with no doubt, getting rid of Osama bin laden has been good news in the American nation. It has been argued that, Osama bin laden contributed to the huge suffering and conduct of terror attacks killing of innocent people. The bin-laden phenomenon made most Arabs and Muslims citizens to be deeply frustrated on the policies of efforts in search for Bin laden. The daily star article in March 5, 2011 reported that, efforts of killing Bin Laden have damaged reputations of Muslims and Arabs.
Recently, Osama Bin Lane was shot. Feelings of frustrations, hopelessness and humiliation were observed in the Arab community. Many Arab youths demonstrated hoping to change the corrupt political only to be prison and faced the regime bullet. Studies shows that, many had turned to religion extremists to the point Roman Catholic Bishop speech outlined how Portland’s largest mosque had painted on their mosque following bin laden death that “Osama today, Islam tomorrow and Go home” (Roskin 1). As a result, the United State government has exclaimed that Bin Laden was a man that sowed division as well as hatred between Christianity and Muslim.
In conjunction with this, there has been Jewish group intervening for mosques access to their rights. Two months ago, the group contended that Muslims were denied their rights for freedom of worship in the United State. Researchers argue that, a Jewish group was intervening in the case of demanding the American nation to offer them a place of worship (Badran 2). The Muslim worshippers claimed that, Alpharetta was illegally blocked to exterminate the construction f new worship centre. In this regard, the Muslim contended that, the united State failed to protect Muslim rights to the extent of denying them a religious freedom for a house of worship.
Political situation in the US in relation to racism
Racism has been a major issue in the United State since the colonial era. Legally imposing, racism has imposed a heavy burden regarding the American Jews and Eastern European along with immigrants from elsewhere has suffered racism in the American society. The reason why racism has been on a higher side in United State is that, many people in America have prejudice against other races. For many years, discrimination has occurred to Latin Americans, Muslims and African Americans (Segall 1).
Two months ago, reports indicated that, despite the fact that United State is currently ruled by a black president there were still some racism between the white and the black people. In the article Race, Racial attitude and stratification beliefs by Dietrich in March 2011, Eduardo and Dietrich argue that, the white people deemed the election of President Obama since he is an African. Most people argued that, hearsay of Obama being a Muslim also contributed to the racial attitude. In conjunction with this, studies show that, the existing racial equality is the product of the new President who in this case is an African. Reports in March 2001 indicated that, there have been laws and cultural norms that have effectively assisted in eradicating racism ( Dietrich & Bonilla 1). For instance, there have equality in terms of employment in that; equal rights are being given to both the black and whites concerning employment.
President Obama has played a fundamental role in eradicating racism in the sense that, in April 2011 he released his long-term certificate, which outlined that he was born in Africa. This aspect challenged those that believed that an African could never rule the whites. To prove that racism is on a higher side in American, the whites demanded answers from Obama regarding birth. In this regard, researchers indicated that, aspect of President Obama being questioned about his birth, clearly exposed racism in the United State, which for a long time affected the country (Alani 1). As a victim of racially prejudiced, President Obama believes that, United State requires addressing the issue of racism and; as a result, reducing racial discrimination.
Political situation in the US in relation to feminism
In essence, feminism regard to the collection of movement that aimed at establishing, defining and defending equal rights for women. These rights are based on political, economical and social rights that portray equal opportunities for women. With this regard, feminist activists have effectively generally campaign for women rights such as broadly promoting women rights in all aspects of life. In addition, feminism is argued to be the intellectual commitment as well as the political movement, which seeks justice for women. In considering different strategies for responding to feminism and diversity of women, Clinton proved feminist foreign policy that it works. In the past years, there were arguments that, women required working harder in order to achieve better results in the world stage since they are regarded to be weaker.
Two months ago, research indicates that, since Clinton became the US secretary, she has been the most influential politician whom advance the explicitly of the feminist agenda. Early this year, Mendes (1) argue that, Clinton has effectively addressed feminist issue, which in many countries like China She outlined the issue of gender imbalance caused by high abortion cases of female. Many of her statements can be routed on the issue of feminism since she believes that there should gender equality at all aspects of life. For the past months, she has carefully worked on the issue of gender equality and fighting sexual violence. This is because; women in the past years have been disadvantaged because of societal expectation. As a result, the American nation has diverted attention to the women issues regarding access to health care, employment, equal marriage legislation and environmental consequences for chopping firewood. In response to this, Clinton pledged a hundred million stoves by 2020 through which she believed it would reduce sexual violence cases that occur when gathering firewood.
Without doubts, Hillary Clinton has carefully couched her feminism for the last two months and her feminism has helped Obama administration. For instance, she has forefront the US response to 2011 Middle East protest. It is a well documented that, Hillary Clinton political position shows how United State has given women equal opportunities with an attempt to eradicate gender inequality. With no doubt, other countries can learn from Clinton political leadership as a woman to the extent she has received many awards in her career and in the activities concerning women.
